My first legitimately level 9999 character!

Oh the joys of Disgaea 3

Last night was amazing...Disgaea 3 has been rough on me, and I'm still trying to figure out how people get so far so quickly. But Alas! I got my first character up to lvl 9999 last night! Followed by my second, and third, and fourth...

If you're thinking 'sheesh, that must have taken AGES'...well yes, it did. But Disagea 3 has a multitude of tools to help speed up the process. In fact, it's one of the few games I can think of that things get infinitely -quicker- as you advance into the late game, as opposed to slowing to a grinding, screeching halt.

Disgaea 3 knows how to handle power leveling. They offer you stages with enemies arranged in a 3x3 grid on EXP + 100% panels. They have little inhabitants that live in the weapons and items you equip that can actually increase the stats if you level them up, including an inhabitant called a 'statistician' that has a level cap of 300, which means it can even further increase your EXP gain by 300%...per statistician.

THEN Disgaea 3 has a nice little exploit that allows you to duplicate items. This isn't a glitch, Disgaea 3 has been through at least 3 patches now and it hasn't been taken out yet. So put all this together, and you have items that can hold up to 8 inhabitants, fill that sucker with 8 statisticians, and you have an item that increases your EXP gain by 2400%...then duplicate that, and you have 4800%...and again for 7200% EXP gain...

tl;dr: Characters can jump hundreds and thousands instantly if you set things up right. I love this game.
